Dinosaur fossils are often dated by using an element other than carbon, like potassium-40, that has a longer half life (in this case, approximately 1.25 billion years). suppose the minimum detectable amount is 0.1% and a dinosaur is dated with 40k to be 67 million years old. what is the maximum age of a fossil that we could date using 40k? (round your answer to one decimal place.)
